Win a Game of Thrones ‘Beautiful Death’ puzzle

Game of Thrones is a series stocked with stunning, violent and erotic imagery, much of which we’ve never seen before and all of which we’ve never seen in a primetime television program. And what makes the stirring show even more culturally relevant is the way its iconography has infiltrated all the liberal arts, from that chest-pounding theme song to the costumes, toys and more. Among the artful extensions of the Game of Thrones universe is USAopoly and HBO’s new line of Robert M. Ball illustrated collector’s “Beautiful Death” puzzles, each one depicting in an abstract way, key moments of operatic and narratively important bloodshed.

The “Beautiful Death” series are 1000-piece puzzles that measure 19-by-27 inches and would look beautiful framed in any serious GOT fan’s living room. Lucky for you, dear reader, we have one of the puzzles to giveaway. Details on how to win are below.

“Violence is a Disease” is Ball’s depiction of Season 6, Episode 7, “The Broken Man.” This is the episode where The Hound mourns the death of Septon, a murder that helps put him on a new, courageous path. Here, we see the blood dripping axe of The Hound wedged in a tree trunk with his screaming emblem reflected in its blade. Stunning work.

Gadot, Watson, Lawrence and more read Mean Tweets

The Mean Tweets are back! Jimmy Kimmel Live! is back with another installment of Mean Tweets, wherein visiting talent are asked to read aloud some not-so-nice statements that have been posted about them on social media. The end result is both hilarious and eye-opening and you can check out the Mean Tweets below!

Here is the official synopsis for The Last Laugh: After 50 years, talent manager and widower Al Hart reunites with former client Buddy Green who gave up a promising career as a stand-up comedian and instead settled down to have a family. After Al convinces Buddy to perform on a bucket list tour of classic standup venues across the U.S., Buddy gets on last taste of the life he could have had. The Last Laugh shows the rollercoaster ride of two men rekindling friendships, careers and ideas of the past while traveling around the country together.

“It’s not surprising a script as poignant and funny as this attracted such award-winning talent,” said Paris. “It’s a perfect fit for a distributor like Netflix because it has universal themes and internationally-recognizable stars. I’m beyond excited to begin production with our amazing team in New Orleans and our dream cast.”

The deal with Netflix Originals was brokered by ICM Independent.

Paramount Network debuts first look at Taylor Kitsch as David Koresh in Waco series

Paramount Network has released first-look pics of Taylor Kitsch (Battleship, Lone Survivor) as cult leader David Koresh in their upcoming six-part series Waco. The cast includes Michael Shannon, Taylor Kitsch, John Leguizamo, Andrea Riseborough, Rory Culkin, Melissa Benoist, Paul Sparks, Shea Whigham, Camryn Manheim, and Julia Garner. Waco is based on the controversial and harrowing true story of the 1993 standoff between the FBI, ATF and David Koresh’s spiritual sect in Waco, TX that resulted in a deadly shootout and fire. Waco is executive produced by Weinstein Television, written by John Erick Dowdle and Drew Dowdle, and directed by John Erick Dowdle. You can check out the pics in the gallery below.

In February, 1993, the eyes of the world converged on Mount Carmel, a small religious community located just outside Waco, TX. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) had just conducted a massive raid on David Koresh and his followers, known as the Branch Davidians. After what became the longest gun battle in U.S. law enforcement history, four ATF agents and six civilians were dead and dozens more were wounded. A 51-day standoff ensued, and the conflict ended after an FBI assault led to a fire that engulfed Mount Carmel, killing 76 men, women, and children.

What precipitated the ATF raid, and what transpired over the ensuing standoff, remains one of the most misunderstood stories in American history. Waco is based on two biographies, “A Place Called Waco,” by Branch Davidian David Thibodeau, one of the nine survivors of the final fire on April 19, 1993, and “Stalling for Time: My Life as an FBI Hostage Negotiator,” written by the FBI’s Head of Crisis Negotiation Unit Gary Noesner.

History has released the first trailer for Knightfall, their new original drama series, which you can check out in the player below! Knightfall premieres Wednesday, December 6 at 10 PM ET/PT on History.

From A+E Studios in association with Jeremy Renner’s The Combine and Midnight Radio, the ten-episode season takes viewers inside the medieval politics and warfare of the Knights Templar, the most powerful, wealthy and mysterious military order of the Middle Ages who were entrusted with protecting Christianity’s most precious relics.

Knightfall begins after the fall of the city of Acre, the Templar’s last stronghold in the Holy Land, where the Holy Grail is lost. Years later, a clue emerges suggesting the whereabouts of the Grail and sends the Templars, led by the noble, courageous and headstrong Templar Knight Landry (Tom Cullen, Downton Abbey, Gunpowder), on a life or death mission to find the lost Cup of Christ. From their battles in the Holy Land, to their clash with the King of France, to the dark events leading to the demise of the Templar Order on Friday the 13th, 1307 —a date which became synonymous with bad luck—the story of the Knights Templar has never been fully told until now. Focusing on themes such as belief, sacrifice, politics, love, power and revenge – Knightfall goes deep into the clandestine world of this legendary brotherhood of warrior monks to find out who these knights were, how they lived, and what they died believing.

In addition to Cullen, the drama series also stars Pádraic Delaney (The Wind That Shakes the Barley, The Tudors) as Gawain, once the greatest swordsman of the Templar Order who was crippled at Acre, and Simon Merrells (Spartacus, Dominion) as Tancrede, a steadfast, brave, and resolute knight who venerates his Templar vows above all else.

Knightfall‘s cast is replete with historical figures, representing the most powerful forces in Medieval Europe. Completing the cast is Jim Carter (Downton Abbey) as Pope Boniface VIII, the Holy Leader of the Templar Knights and a stabilizing, incorruptible force within a chaotic medieval world; Olivia Ross (War and Peace) as Queen Joan of Navarre, wife to King Philip IV of France and a powerful Queen in her own right; a devoted mother, formidable diplomat and keen strategist; Ed Stoppard (The Crown) as King Philip IV of France, the most powerful monarch in Europe who seeks to consolidate his power with the help of his Machiavellian right-hand man and pragmatic lawyer, William De Nogaret, played by Julian Ovenden (Downton Abbey); and Sabrina Bartlett (DaVinci’s Demons) as Princess Isabella, Queen Joan and King Philip’s daughter who would come to dominate the Kingdom of England as the She-Wolf of France.

The series also stars Bobby Schofield (Black Sea, Our World War) as Parsifal; a young peasant farmer who seeks to become a part of the Templar Order; and Sarah-Sofie Boussnina(The Bridge, The Absent One) as Adelina, a Jewish refugee from the Holy Land who finds herself the victim of new persecution in Paris.

A citizen of National City has a mysterious connection to Kara, and Lena (Katie McGrath) makes a bold move.”

Jesse Warn directed the episode, which has a story by Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Robert Rovner and Caitlin Parrish.

Mon, 25 Sep 2017 18:29:01 +0000http://www.comingsoon.net/?p=890309The series is hoping for a premium cable home

Underworld TV series in development from Len Wiseman

Deadline brings word that Underworld franchise creator Len Wiseman is bringing the horror series to television with his production company Sketch Films and Sony Television.

“The series will be a pretty big departure from the films,” Wiseman tells the outlet. “I don’t want to say it’s more adult, but it’s definitely less comic book in its tone and character.”

The series doesn’t currently have a home, but Wiseman hopes for the series to land on premium cable or a digital service. Wiseman will executive produce the Underworld TV series alongside Lakeshore Entertainment’s Tom Rosenberg, Gary Lucchesi and Eric Reid.

Underworld kicked off with the first film in the series in 2003, starring Kate Beckinsale in the role of Selene, a vampire assassin that finds herself in the middle of an ever-expanding war between vampires and lycans. The film spawned four more entries in the series with Underworld: Evolution in 2006, Underworld: Rise of the Lycans in 2009, Underworld: Awakening in 2012, and Underworld: Blood Wars earlier this year. Wiseman directed the first two films in the series and served as a producer for the final three. The Underworld series has brought in over $539 million at the global box office.

Sanaa Lathan joins Showtime’s The Affair season four

Showtime has announced that Sanaa Lathan (American Assassin, Shots Fired) has joined the cast of the Golden Globe-winning drama series The Affair for its upcoming fourth season. The series is set to return in 2018.

Lathan will play Jenelle, the tough-as-nails principal of the charter school where Noah (Dominic West) teaches, who intrigues him. She’s got a lot to prove to her school’s oppositional administration and faculty, who seem to fight her at every turn.

The Affair stars Golden Globe nominee Dominic West, Golden Globe winner Ruth Wilson, Emmy Award nominee Maura Tierney and Screen Actors Guild Award®nominee Joshua Jackson. The series explores the emotional and psychological effects of an affair that destroyed two marriages, and the crime that brings these individuals back together. Season four finds Noah (West), Helen (Tierney), Alison (Wilson) and Cole (Jackson) in their own orbits, alienated from each other, spinning further and further away from where they all began. Every character is involved in a new relationship, forcing them each to decide if they’re ready and willing to leave the past behind for good – a season about new beginnings, tragic ends and the ever-elusive possibility of forgiveness. The Affair is currently in production in New York and Los Angeles. WGA Award-winning playwright and writer/producer Sarah Treem (House of Cards, In Treatment) and Hagai Levi (In Treatment) created the series. Treem, also the showrunner, and Levi serve as executive producers.

Nominated for a Film Independent Spirit Award for her lead role in Love and Basketball, Lathan has starred in feature films including American Assassin, Alien vs. Predator, Contagion, The Best Man and The Best Man Holiday, The Perfect Guy, Now You See Me 2, Something New, Out of Time and Brown Sugar. She also received a Tony Award nomination for her Broadway performance in A Raisin in the Sun, later reprising the role for television, where she has performed in series that include Boss, Nip/Tuck, The Cleveland Show, Family Guy and a starring role on Shots Fired.
